And, I tried in Opera 58 and everything works fine. The extensions are still available after moving the portable installation to a different OS.
So, it's definitely a regression. Just not sure yet if it's caused by some change in Chromium or if it's something Opera intentionally changed or if it's a bug in Opera.
@mrduke, can you test with Opera Beta and Opera Developer to see if it's something that's already fixed?

I was able to test in Opera Developer. It has the issue too.

@jbaum Not yet. However, Opera Devs are taking a look at it. It may indeed be a new extension tampering prevention feature that broke things.

Do you know if that used to work okay?
